.Receiver Noise Level
|
||
|
||
- If it is not already highlighted in green, click the *Monitor*
|
||
button to start normal receive operation.
|
||
|
||
- Be sure your transceiver is set to *USB* (or *USB Data*) mode.
|
||
|
||
- Use the receiver gain controls and/or the computer's audio mixer
|
||
controls to set the background noise level (scale at lower left of
|
||
main window) to around 30 dB when no signals are present. It is
|
||
usually best to turn AGC off or reduce the RF gain control to minimize
|
||
AGC action.
|
||
|
||
.Bandwidth and Frequency Setting
|
||
|
||
- If your transceiver offers more than one bandwidth setting in USB
|
||
mode, it may be advantageous to choose the widest one possible, up to
|
||
about 5 kHz. This choice has the desirable effect of allowing the
|
||
*Wide Graph* (waterfall and 2D spectrum) to display the conventional
|
||
JT65 and JT9 sub-bands simultaneously on most HF bands. Further
|
||
details are provided in the <<TUTORIAL,Basic Operating Tutorial>>. A
|
||
wider displayed bandwidth may also be helpful at VHF and above, where
|
||
FT8, JT4, JT65, and QRA64 signals may be found over much wider ranges
|
||
of frequencies.
|
||
|
||
- If you have only a standard SSB filter you won’t be able to display
|
||
more than about 2.7 kHz bandwidth. Depending on the exact dial
|
||
frequency setting, on HF bands you can display the full sub-band
|
||
generally used for one mode.
|
||
|
||
- Of course, you might prefer to concentrate on one mode at a time,
|
||
setting your dial frequency to (say) 14.074 for FT8, 14.076 for JT65,
|
||
or 14.078 for JT9. Present conventions have the nominal JT9 dial
|
||
frequency 2 kHz higher than the JT65 dial frequency on most bands, and
|
||
the FT8 frequency 2 kHz lower.
|
||
|
||
.Transmitter Audio Level
|
||
|
||
* Click the *Tune* button on the main screen to switch the
|
||
radio into transmit mode and generate a steady audio tone.
|
||
|
||
* Listen to the generated audio tone using your radio’s *Monitor*
|
||
facility. The transmitted tone should be perfectly smooth, with no
|
||
clicks or glitches. Make sure that this is true even when you
|
||
simultaneously use the computer to do other tasks such as email, web
|
||
browsing, etc.
|
||
|
||
* Adjust the *Pwr* slider (at right edge of main window) downward from
|
||
its maximum until the RF output from your transmitter falls slightly.
|
||
This is generally a good level for audio drive.
|
||
|
||
* Toggle the *Tune* button once more or click *Halt Tx* to stop your
|
||
test transmission.
